Newquay nostalgia

Jake Harper said: "I don't know what's worse, the fact that one dirty person could have the will power to write in fecal matter or the fact this one dirty low life has the power to deter our community from wanting to attend the upcoming Newquay Pride!"

Every year, thousands pour on to the streets flying rainbow flags high as the Pride Parade comes to Cornwall. It will be the 11th annual Pride celebration this year and it is set to be bigger and better than ever before, say organisers.

Last year boyband Union J headlined the day, which aims to campaign for equality and raise awareness of a number of issues within the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community (LGBTQ+).

The Gay Pride parade is a colourful and vibrant event, planned to flow through the streets of Newquay, standing tall and standing proud. The event will boast floats, walking bands, dance groups and reach out to organisations and charities.

Similar to last year there will three parts to the day - the Parade, the Rainbow Fest and the Moonbow Party. However on the Cornwall Pride website, organisers confirmed there would be “huge changes to the set up of the day”.

The parade will start at 12pm leaving from the Beach Road Car Park in Newquay, however those in the procession are asked to arrive at 11am.

The events each year are all inclusive and open for everyone to attend.
